Gurukul- An Indigenous Part Of Indian Culture
A Gurukul is a type of school in India since the ancient times, residential in nature, with shishyas living in proximity to the guru, often within the same house. In a Gurukul, shishyas reside together as equals, irrespective of their social standards, learn from the guru and help him in his day-to-day life, including the carrying out of mundane chores such as washing clothes, cooking, cleaning etc.
While living in a Gurukul the students had to be away from his house and family just like today’s residential schools.
